We have to crank a blog out every week. It was easy at first, but I ended up writing an entire post about the little hook on the top of the iBooks, no joke. We end up needing resources so that we don’t lose every single reader, or poison them with these blogs. They’re dangerous things, really. Describing pictures got old, really old. First and foremost, your readers can see them, and don’t need your commentary unless they are partially or completely blind, which means they can’t read you blog anyway, so don’t bother. We experimented with building comments, which was interesting, but ended up with many responses such as ‘thanks for the recognition, but you completely missed the entire point of the post, but thanks anyway,’ and ‘what the heck is a building comment and why do they have one on my post?’ which was slightly strange to see references all over the post from an anonymous blog…hmmm. Then there was poetry, which was commentable because you could interpret it, much unlike a cartoon or pic. Posts with google video typically delve much deeper into the mind/concept. They are interpretable, much like poetry, but you can also question the content, design elements, choice of video, sounds and any metaphors that might be linked to the writing.  To rob us of google video is to prevent a rising technologic age that many are enthused about, but that the world is too afraid to allow.  This sacred age is too huge to prevent, and the resistance will only make it bigger, more industrial.  Embrace this changing age, and allow Google Video.
